Garden violets in the photo

Recently, garden violets have been photographed with flowers such as viola. In apartments we often see violets and saintpaulias, but in the garden they look very different. It is convenient to plant perennial herbaceous plants in gardens, but biennial plants are usually on sale.

Garden violets in the photo and in the flower beds

How do you recognize these flowers? Their leaves grow in the order of the next type, or a basal rosette is formed from them. Flowers can be white, blue, yellow, red. They need a number of conditions:

  • They need sunny places, otherwise they can suffer from slugs if they choose wet and shady beds;
  • If the bed is fertilized, it is moist, well-drained;
  • When the weather is too dry, you need to increase watering;
  • If the flowers become smaller, and flowering stops, watering is increased;
  • Violets multiply by their seeds, leaving them in the ground in the fall, next spring shoots will appear;
  • The bush can be divided into cuttings, they will also sprout;
  • It is recommended to use division for three years, this will help to create a neat attractive bush;
  • The seed pods can not be removed, then the sowing will be independent and very abundant.

This is how the garden violet multiplies. They can and even preferably be kept in the cold until October. Then the disembarkation is transferred at home. In severe winters, they are covered with branches. You can prolong flowering by pinching off a wilted flower. Mineral fertilizers also have a beneficial effect. They are well used for forcing. So violets will decorate photos not only in the apartment, but also in the gardens.

I love Pansies, but I never manage to grow it myself. Although they seem to be unpretentious flowers, I always buy flowering seedlings. They are especially beautiful in autumn, when most of the flowers have already faded.

Once she sowed a fragrant violet. Since then, it scatters itself throughout the site and pleases with its flowering twice a season. I grow pansies as a biennial. You can grow them as perennials, but then you need to cover them before winter.

We also have violets at home, they are not very whimsical, and in the country they planted them in a flower bed. They bloom for a long time and confidently. They do not require care, except for watering in hot weather and shelter for the winter, so that they do not freeze out.

Garden violets look very beautiful and bright! I always dream of planting them around the house, but I didn't know, to tell the truth, that they can grow for many years, I always thought that they were biennials.
